Using both the foundations and the pillars of a pre-existent small two-bedroom house, this project was developed to reach the family needs for space. The large hip and valley roof is a single structure that covers the 750 square meters house (19.837 square feet), creating twenty six roof plans, while a two way pitched section balances over the main entrance porch. The façade and pillars where painted both in brown and ocher in order to create a visual effect which detaches the roof from the outside walls.
